The Houston Astros' offense is simply too powerful to stop. It’s one in which the 7-8-9 hitters are as good are the equivalent of a heart of the order.
The Astros made it 11 straight wins, good for the longest winning streak in the majors this season, with its victory on Monday night. That’s one shy of the club record for longest win streak, set in 1999 and 2004.
A seven-run output made it seven straight road games in which the Astros scored at least six runs, which the Elias Sports Bureau notes matches the longest such streak in team history (done previously in 1985).
